Provideadequate vent at on.DO NOT use ovencleaners, gritty cleansers, coarseabrasivepads or brushes,siliconespraysor metal scrapers on the interior walls,oven frame or ceiling of a continuouscleaning oven. Permanent damage tothe oven may result.!r_ DO NOT line the ovenwalls, bottom, racks or any other partof the appliance with aluminumfoil. Doing so will destroy heatdistribution, produce poor bakingresults and cause permanent damageto the oven interior (aluminum foil willmelt to the interior surface of the oven).Continuous Cleaning Oven (some models)Continuous cleaning ovens have a special coating which is a porous ceramicmaterial. This rough coating tends to prevent grease spatters from forminglittle beads which run down the side walls leaving streaks that require handcleaning. Instead, when spatter hits the porous coating, it disperses and ispartially absorbed. Thisspreading action increasesthe exposure of oven soil toheated air, making it lessnoticeable.Soil may not disappear completely. Remaining soil will gradually fade withcontinued oven use. The special coating works best on small amounts ofspatter. Larger spills,or spills generating from sugar, egg and dairy mixtures,do not clean as well.If difficult soils occur:1. Remove the oven racks and cookware.2. Remove soils by completing steps a or b below:a) Use hot, soapy water and wash soils using a nylon-bristly brush or a nylonmesh scouring pad. DO NOT rub or scrub with paper towels, cloths orsponges. They will leave lint on the oven coating.b) Apply ammonia with a sponge and dab it into the porous coating. Leavethe ammonia on the soiled area for 30 minutes.3. Rinse with clear water.4. Close the oven door and push in and turn the Temperature Control knobto 450°F (230°C).5. Operate oven for 15 minutes.6. Remaining soil will fade with continued oven use.To Clean the Oven BottomThe oven bottom is not a continuous cleaning finish. Oven cleaners can beused on the oven bottom only.
